JANE CHIPP

I create using found objects, old papers and photographs.  I’m fascinated by the lives of ‘normal’ people…how they lived day to day, the minutiae of everyday life. If someone took a (pre-digital) photograph it was because that event mattered,
and they wanted to preserve a memory. 
Or a letter that has survived for decades did so because it was really valued by someone. 
I try to honour this sentiment through my art. 
 
I work mainly with stitch, collage, assemblage, and encaustic wax.  I like to create stories and not let once-treasured things be discarded. 
 
I source materials from flea markets, auctions, and junk shops and have collected items for years on my travels.  My pieces rarely start with a plan; I’m usually drawn to the vintage materials and decide what is needed to give it a new life.
